The MSWG-ASEAN Corporate Governance Recognition Awards is held annually to encourage best corporate governance practices, quality and transparency among public listed companies in Malaysia. It also reflects a high commitment in improving corporate governance practices in the international scene.

The ‘Best Investor Event’ Award is in recognition of Astro’s inaugural Analyst & Investor Day, held in July 2017 in Kuala Lumpur. Astro was also the second runner-up in two other categories: ‘Best Annual Report’ and ‘Best ESG Communications’.

Astro’s Analyst & Investor Day 2017 was held particularly to communicate the Group’s value creation strategy in a landscape of increasing digitalisation, through presentations from Astro’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Dato’ Rohana Rozhan, and its senior management. The event was well-received and resulted in coverage across local and foreign research houses, as well as in news media.
